Gen Zers are calling out the popular thumbs-up emoji for being “rude” and “hostile,” even saying they feel attacked whenever they see it used in the workplace.
“For younger people, the thumbs-up emoji is used to be really passive-aggressive,” a 24-year-old Redditor wrote. “It’s super rude if someone just sends you a thumbs up,” they added. “So I also had a weird time adjusting because my workplace is the same.”
Several Reddit users agreed with the decision to cancel the emoji, saying that using it in a work environment makes the team members “unaccommodating” and seem “unfriendly.”

Between the millenials and these kids the USA is finished. A nation can’t really survive when the entire populace is obsessed with utterly trivial things and ignore the important ones. Politicians will feast on such sheep.
Don’t pay any attention to anybody’s “NOOB” nonsense. I’ve been an active FReeper since 1998 and got a kick out of your post — and how it triggered a few snowflakes or our own. AAM
Gen Z needs to get their Vagisil supply refilled.
But a pregnant man emoji is ok. F’n retards. 🙊💩😂👍
Also, according to my 17 year old daughter, punctuation in a text is also aggressive. Using periods in a text indicates anger. Who knew?
👌🏻 This somehow survives
Can America survive these morons? I guess it will come down to how many of them there really are. Glad I’ll be dead.
Gee. I thought using punctuation was acting white.
Go cry in your corner!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍
I scored top 1% in disagreeableness. :-)

Actually this is the PERFECT way to find out who the "SNOWFLAKES" are among us.
May they ALL MELT suddenly!

“Just laugh and tell them it isn’t rude at all.”
Just laugh and tell them to GFT.
BF supported the vax. Big time.
This movement will come to an end when people who exhibit wokeness are met with a big “F*** you!” from the people who witness it.
There will be no mistaking to offensive meaning of that.
“…but in Brooklyn you’re just another soft spoken sweetheart. Go figure…”
It’s been a long time since I lived in Brooklyn so I may have lost a few steps, but with a little effort I’m sure I can get that score up to top 0.1 percent.
